The job of a MotoGP rider is not limited to operating his motorcycle during the 21 race weekends, and the current activities of fabio quartararo are a good example of this.
When a driver in the premier category of Grands Prix signs his contract with a manufacturer, there are a whole bunch of clauses concerning each person's commitments, including the number of days the manufacturer has the driver's schedule at his disposal. promotional purposes for the brand. The latter being counted, Yamaha uses them mainly in Asia, the largest market for all Japanese manufacturers.
This is how, after participating in the MotoGP test in Sepang, Malaysia, fabio quartararo flew straight to Vietnam for an appearance at RevZone Yamaha Motor Saigon, i.e. the group of dealers for large displacement motorcycles from Yamaha Motor Vietnam. There, accompanied by Franco Morbidelli, the 2021 world champion willingly took part in the traditional questions answering sessions, autograph signings and other selfies (See photos at the bottom of the article).
But for such an event, the Vietnamese had gone big and the action also took place at the Phu Tho stadium, where fabio quartararo was able to indulge in some spectacular demonstrations aboard a Yamaha R7.
These joys over, the French pilot returned to Europe, but had not yet finished with this type of festivities: he left for the Philippines today, where “The Apex Arrival” will take place on March 4 on the 4,189 kilometer route of the CIS (Clark International Speedway), in Mabalacat.
Finally, far from resting, fabio quartararo is undoubtedly looking forward to the next MotoGP test, on March 11 and 12 in Portimão…
